Sean B. shares his gripping journey from despair to lasting sobriety in this episode of Keep Coming Back Podcast. Arriving at the doors of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) feeling suicidal and desperate, Sean embarked on a transformative path that led him to a life free from alcohol since October 28th, 1989. Despite moving and drifting away from the program for a while, Sean never relapsed and eventually found his way back to the AA community.
He now treats his alcoholism using the 12 steps, finding solace and strength in the tools provided by the program. Sean's story is filled with personal anecdotes, from his early encounters with alcohol as a child to his struggles with depression and suicidal thoughts in his teenage years. He recounts the pivotal moments that led him to seek help, including a therapist's suggestion to attend AA meetings, which he initially resisted but eventually embraced.

Whether you're new to recovery or have been sober for years, Sean's story offers hope and encouragement, reminding you that change is possible with dedication and support from the AA community.
